Answered Question - Disney Parks Moms Panel

How does the bar code on the refillable mugs work at the waterparks? Do you bring your own mug from your resort or do they provide one. Do you know what is the cost for the day? Just read about this on the panel today. Thanks!

Hi Tara!

The refillable mugs from the water parks are completely different than your resort mug. You must purchase the mug at one of the water parks which will come with a barcode allocated to that day. You can then take that mug to any refill station located throughout the water park and simply scan the code at the machine. It will unlock the soda machine and you can refill your mug. It is unlimited refills for that day. The current price of a refillable mug with a barcode is $9.99. If you return to the water parks on a different day, there is no need to purchase a new mug. All you need to do is buy a new sticker at a discount and stick it on your old mug.
